OV144 - Star Wars Saga: Part 1 - The Dark Side

Listen Later

In preparation for The Force Awakens this week, we set out to discuss the entire Star Wars saga. What we ended up with was a 2.5 hour discussion about the saga and why I (Matt) can’t seem to connect with it. This is Part 1 of that recording.
